| description | Human motion detection is a crucial factor for
security and surveillance applications. Among all available
sensors, capacitive sensors have proven to be advantageous for
human motion recognition and tracking due to their
cost-effectiveness and intrusive abilities. This kind of sensor is
also capable of sensing targets from a remote distance,
especially for elderly monitoring at home or care centers. The
purpose of this paper is to inspect human motion in an indoor
atmosphere to monitor the distinctiveness of an individual
person in a specific area by deploying a capacitive-based floor
detector. Keeping this aim in mind, a model of capacitive
sensing technique for detecting human motion in an indoor
environment has been developed. The results attained in this
paper are of time analysis of capacitance transducer signals
which were obtained in a laboratory environment, measuring
the performance of the system. As the mobile human goes
toward or far from the capacitive sensors, the capacitance of the
system will be varied. This is when the occupancy state of the
implemented sensors will indicate the movement of human
targets. |
